Donald Where's Yer Trousers....

Good morning everyone!  Father's Day is just around the corner and I wanted a card with a bit of humour for my husband.  He's going through a really bad stretch right now, so I wanted a card to bring a smile.  Back when he was working, all he would seem to wear were plaid shirts....and I got sick of them!  I didn't think they would ever wear out....so this card is for him.


This is another cute image from Just Inklined called Dougal McDougall...isn't he a snazzy chap?  He was very lucky that the weather was fine and not too windy. (lol)  It does bring to mind that old song 'Donald Where's Yer Trousers', does anyone else remember that one?   He's been coloured with copics, then cut out and framed with my Spellbinders Lacey Ovals die.  The plaid ribbon strip has been coloured to match with distress stain, and I played with an Edgeability die to make the fancy black piece.  Some peel off stickers for a bit of bling, some faux stitching and a hand printed sentiment make up the finishing touches.

Now for a few fun challenges:
